Telstra confident of CDMA switch-off

After carrying wireless telecommunications in rural Australia since 2000,
the CDMA mobile phone network has just 25 days to live, with Telstra gearing
up for a last-minute rush from customers switching from the old network to
Next G.
Telstra management is certain that it will pass scrutiny by the Australian
Communications and Media Association (ACMA), which in December conducted
extensive testing of Telstra's new Next G network to check that it is
"comparable or better" than CDMA.

The former Coalition and new Labor governments have both said that Telstra
will only be able to proceed with its planned switch-off the CDMA network on
January 28 if the Next G network is deemed up to scratch by the ACMA's
independent testing.

For Telstra, extinguishing CDMA can't come too early.

A big reason for its investment in the Next G network was to rationalise its
two mobile networks (CDMA and GSM) into one.

While CDMA remains in operation, the telco continues to maintain two
networks - and bleed profits.

But Telstra Countrywide director, Gary Goldsworthy, who is in charge of CDMA
migration, said the telco is "very confident" that Next G performs at least
as well as CDMA.

"We've done everything that the government has asked us to do in terms of
coverage, handsets and solutions for customers," Mr Goldsworthy said.

While there are still anecdotal reports of holes in Next G coverage, Mr
Goldsworthy said as far as Telstra is concerned, the network is performing
as it should.

"With most customers who say they can't get a signal, we're finding that
it's a normal fault that you would find on any mobile network."

In any case, there's no going back.

The "3G" GSM technology that powers Next G has a much more extensive upgrade
"roadmap" than CDMA; a guarantee, Telstra says, that its Next G network
won't be stuck in the technology backwater that rural Australia found itself
in with the old analogue network.

Most of the mobile-using world has voted for GSM.

According to Telstra, about 85pc of the globe's mobile networks are based on
GSM technology.

Cingular, which controls the biggest mobile phone network in North America,
is currently migrating its 50 million customers to a 3G network that uses
the same bandwidth as Next G.

At the same time, Ericsson, a former manufacturer of CDMA network
components, has stopped working with CDMA technology, as has Nokia, which
ceased making CDMA handsets in mid-2007.

And if Telstra's figures are to be believed, Australia already has a better
network with Next G than it has with CDMA.

The telco claims that Next G covers 98.9pc of the Australian population
(CDMA supposedly covers about 98pc of the population), with another $23
million to be spent on additional Next G highway coverage as part of an
ongoing program to patch holes in high-traffic areas.

And we will see if telstra's certain sees the acma make an obscene gesture
in their general direction and shafts them just like all the courts have done

And you have absolutely no idea what they have decided on that.

Or even if they buy your line about what that means either.

That aint what they said. They actually said that telstra will be held to
that same of better claim, and the word comparable wasnt used either.

Mindless silly stuff. It would be too early for telstra if it was tomorrow, fuckwit.

Nope, the big reason was to avoid having to resell the cdma system.

And after the cdma system is turned off, if its ever allowed to
do that, it will STILL have to maintain two networks, fuckwit.

What matters is whether the acma agrees with that.

And we'll see if the acma agrees with that.

Doesnt matter a damn what telstra thinks, its what the acma thinks that matters.

Pathetic.

The govt can force telstra to not turn off the cdma system.

Irrelevant.

You werent singing that song when you were spruiking cdma.

So you'll have to pardon us when we dont buy your lies about NextG now.

And pity about the bands the rest of the world chooses to do GSM on too.

Plenty of others still make them.

Pity about those who dont get any service with NextG who do with cdma.

Irrelevant to those who have a cdma service but no NextG service.
